Frankly,I cannot recommend this movie on any level.The pace is tedious,special effects are less than ordinary,and the whole film is grainy throughout,particularly in the dark scenes.Apparently,the film was shot using digital cameras,to give the film a "really real look".It looks horrendous,particularly on DVD.And the worst thing about this film is that it is not the least bit scary,which is sadly true of the large majority of horror films made these days (in mainstream Hollywood at least).The actual premise is indeed scary,but it does not translate to the screen.Zombie movies have been done to death,quite literally.George A.Romero owns this genre and everyone else should stop even trying to come up with anything new.Even he resorted to rehashing his own material in the end.
Dead movie,dead genre.Give it a miss.
